New session of The Finishing School
We’re starting up a new 8-week session tonight, 4/8, running through 5/27.
It’s been a subtle in many ways, but amazing couple of years of the workshop. Just the amount of stuff all the writers have been able to crank out, to finish, the amount of progress made, has been nothing short of inspiring.
Every Tuesday night after class, after hearing all those vivid and true pages, my brain is completely scrambled. The writing just sucks me in and I end up having to go to St. Nick’s Pub and order a cheeseburger and Bushmills and try to climb out.
And then I get home, lie in bed unable to sleep because I’m still thinking about all the characters and stories and the crazy hot lines people wrote.
I was telling Conrad, who is doing some impressive work with his Scientology short stories, that it takes me a couple of days to feel like I’m back in my own world.
But then, that’s what I have always loved about reading, no? The way some evenly spaced monochromatic words on paper can create a whole universe right in front of your eyes, trap you in it, and won’t let you go.
Anyway, check this page for more info. Drop me a note if you’re newly interested.
Looking forward to seeing you and reading your mad words.
